Speaking at Lord's last week, England captain Joe Root described himself as "hacked off" by the growing number of alcohol-related stories around the team, adding: "I've spoken to Brydon and when I first found out my first concern was him as a person.
"I don't think I'm speaking out of turn in saying he's very upset, very apologetic and understands his actions. I'm sure when he gets his chance, he will say that himself."
England's interim head coach Marcus Trescothick has indicated a preference to field his strongest possible side in pursuit of a 3-0 scoreline, rather than ring the changes.
